SOITHERN  YANK 


Tunk—  "YANKEE  DOODLE.-' 


Tlic  gallant  Major  Anderson  ! 

A  bold  and  fearless  Hanger — 
He  stole  a  march  one  starry  night, 
And  ran  away  from  danger. 
Slip  over  Anderson, 

Into  that  Fort  so  handy, 
And  bid  them  strike  the  martial  straiu 
Of  "Yankee  Doodle  Dandy." 

For  thou  no  longer  then  ean'st  hear 

That  cruel  phantom  mob, 
Nor  in  thy  troubled  visions  fear 

That  they  will  kill  and  rob. 
Slip  over  Anderson,  &c. 

Oh!  gallant  Major  Anderson! 

How  shall  1  sing  the  story 
Of  thy  courageous,  matchless  truth 

And  all  thy  deeds  of  glory? 
Slip  over  Anderson,  &c. 

How  thou  didst  nobly  spike  the  guns 

Upon  that  weak  old  Fort, 
Which  thou  and  thy  attendant  Huns 

Viewed  but  as  manly  sport? 
Slip  over  Anderson,  &c. 

And  when  that  brilliant  "Western  Star" 

Upon  our  harbor  rose. 
And  underneath  her  hatches  close 
Concealed  our  armed  foes? 

Slip  them  all,  brave  Anderson, 

Into  that  Fort  so  handy, 
And  bid  them  strike  the  martial  strain 
Of  "Yankee  I) lie  Dandy." 

But  when  each  brave  Palmetto  boy, 

A  welcome  warm  did  e;ive 
From  camion's  mouth,  they  were  too  coy 
Such  welcome  to  receive. 

Fire  away,  brave  Anderson, 

from  oiif  thai   Fort  so  handy, 
And  bid  them  strike  the  martial  strain 
Of  "Yankee  Doodle  Dandy." 

Be  not  too  grieved,  bravS  Anderson, 
That  this,  your  well  laid  plan, 

Should  come  to  nought,  and  leave  you  thus 

Without  one  extra  man. 

Fire  away,  brave  Anderson,  &c. 

Farewell!  farewell!  brave  Anderson! 

bong  may  these  deeds  of  glory 
Be  noised  abroad  by  trumpet  tame 
In  man}  n  song  and  story. 

me  then  away,  bravt    Anderson. 
From  out  thai   Fort  so  handy, 
Nor  longer  bid  (hem  strike  the  strain 
Of  "Yankee  Doodle  Dandy."
